Subject: [PATCH] Fixing AttributeError in slice_indicator initialization

The issue was related to an AttributeError raised in the code when initializing the slice_indicator variable. The error occurred due to the usage of np.int as the dtype argument in the np.ones() function. In earlier versions of NumPy, np.int was a deprecated alias for the built-in int type. However, starting from NumPy 1.20, these aliases were removed.

To resolve the issue, the code was modified by changing the dtype argument from np.int to np.int64 to specify the desired precision explicitly. The modified code snippet looks as follows:

```
# turn partitions into an indicator
slice_indicator = np.ones(y.shape[0], dtype=np.int64)
```

Title: Fixing AttributeError in slice_indicator initialization

Description:
The issue was related to an `AttributeError` raised in the code when initializing the `slice_indicator` variable. The error occurred due to the usage of `np.int` as the dtype argument in the `np.ones()` function. In earlier versions of NumPy, `np.int` was a deprecated alias for the built-in `int` type. However, starting from NumPy 1.20, these aliases were removed.

To resolve the issue, the code was modified by changing the dtype argument from `np.int` to `np.int64` to specify the desired precision explicitly. The modified code snippet looks as follows:

```python
# turn partitions into an indicator
slice_indicator = np.ones(y.shape[0], dtype=np.int64)
```

This change ensures compatibility with the latest versions of NumPy and resolves the `AttributeError` related to the use of `np.int` in the code. The modified code should now execute without any errors.

By making this fix, the issue has been resolved, and the code functions as intended, initializing the `slice_indicator` variable with the correct dtype.
